Green Wires* —————— Green or Bare Wire(Ground

There are two green grounding leads: from the mounting bracket, and receiver. Turn the wire nut connections upward, spreading them apart so the green (ground) and white wires will be on one side of the outlet box and the black wire will be on the other side. Carefully tuck wires into the outlet box space above the receiver or evenly around the sides of the mounting bracket.

Finishing the Fan Installation

Step 1. Remove two of the four mounting plate screws with lock washers from the mounting plate and loosen the other two screws with lock washers. (Do not remove)
Step 2. Remove the fan motor assembly from the mounting plate hook, and engage the keyholes on the fan motor assembly with the two mounting plate screws with lock washers previously loosened.
Step 3. Install the two mounting plate screws with lock washers previously removed, and tighten all four mounting plate screws with lock washers. (Fig. 9)
Step 4. Secure motor housing to fan motor. Install the motor housing to the fan motor and align the slots with two loosen screws form the previous step. Install two screws from the previous step and tighten all four screws to secure the motor housing to fan motor. (Fig. 10).

Installing the Light Kit

Operating Your Transmitter

Installing the battery
Install a 12V MN21/A23 battery (included) into the remote control. To prevent damage to the remote control, remove the battery if not used for long periods. (Fig. 13)

Remote Control Button Definitions: (Fig. 14) These six buttons are used to set the fan speed as follows:

I = minimum speed
II = low speed
III = medium-low speed
IV = medium speed
V = medium-high speed
VI = high speed
button: Turns the fan off.
button: Controls fan direction.
button: This button is to control the optional light on or off. Press and hold the button to activate the dimmer function.

Your DC brushless motor is equipped with an automatically learned type remote control. There are no frequency switches on the receiver; the receiver unit will automatically scan the frequency from the remote control if any changes are made. The frequency settings on the transmitter should be changed ONLY in case of interference or if a second or more ceiling fans with the same type of control system are installed in the same structure.
Setting the Remote Control
Follow the below steps to set the remote control: The auto-learning function will only mandate within 60 seconds when turning the fan’s AC power ON.From the back of the transmitter, with the fan’s power off, restore power to the fan. Press and hold the “SET” button for about 5 seconds and release. If an optional light kit is installed, the light kit will flash twice and the signal light on the handheld transmitter will come on when the button is pressed. The fan has completed the pairing process with the remote control and is ready for use. (Fig. 15)

NOTE : If the self-calibration test fails, turn the AC power off; restore power, and process the self-calibration test again.
NOTE: During self calibration test, the remote is non-functional.
NOTE: The learning frequency function and self-calibration test will continue to retain the last set frequency and calibration set even when the AC power is shut off. If the frequency is changed the self-calibration test will occur again.
Over 80W protection: When the receiver detects motor power consumption that is greater than 80W, the receiver power will be stopped and operation will immediately discontinue. Wait for 5 seconds and then turn the receiver power back on. Speed settings for warm or cool weather depend on factors such as the room size. Ceiling height, number of fans, and so on.
NOTE: To operate the reverse function on this fan, press the reverse button while the fan is running. Warm weather – (Forward) A downward airflow creates a cooling effect as shown in Fig. 16. This allows you to set your air conditioner in a warmer setting without affecting your comfort. Cool-weather – (Reverse) An upward airflow moves warm air off the ceiling area as shown in Fig. 17. This allows you to set your heating unit on a cooler setting without affecting your comfort.

Care of Your Fan

Installing the Remote\ Control Holder

Step 1. Remove the remote control holder cover from the remote control holder.
Step 2. Attach the remote control holder with the two remote control holder mounting screws provided. (Fig. 18)
Step 3. Replace the remote control holder cover with a remote control holder.

Here are some suggestions to help you maintain your fan

Because of the fan’s natural movement, some connections may become loose. Check the support connections, brackets, and blade attachments twice a year. Make sure they are secure. (It is not necessary to remove fan from the ceiling.)
Clean your fan periodically to help maintain its new appearance over the years. Use only a soft brush or lint-free cloth to avoid scratching the finish. The plating is sealed with a lacquer to minimize discoloration or tarnishing. Do not use water when cleaning. This could damage the motor or possibly cause an electrical shock.
There is no need to oil your fan. The motor has permanently lubricated bearings.

IMPORTANT
MAKE SURE THE POWER IS OFF AT THE ELECTRICAL PANEL BOX BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS. REFER TO THE SECTION “MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS”
